Hi hans, thanks for the idea, but the result is the same. I extracted the
firmware for the windows driver using your tool and when I use it, it seems
to work except for a repeating message of;
dvb-usb: error while querying for an remote control event.
I think they have an other .sys for the remote control management firmware.
But when I try to scan the dmesg is exactly the same as before, everything
seems correct, but there's no signal / SNR. I don't know if this could be a
different GPIO used or different i2c or something like that, because the
rest seems correct.
